Abolition:
Planning
for
Quality
and
Financial
Sustainability
Bamako,
Mali
The
School
Fee
Abolition
Initiative
(SFAI)
aims
at
making
a
breakthrough
in
access
to
basic
education
and
significantly
scale
up
progress
to
meet
the
Millennium
Development
Goals
(MDGs)
and
the
Education
For
All
(EFA)
targets
in
the
next
decade.
Launched
by
UNICEF
and
the
World
Bank
in
2005,
the
Initiative
has
gained
considerable
momentum
through
involvement
of
other
key
development
partners
and
constituencies.
The
goal
of
this
collaborative
effort
is
threefold.
First,
it
is
to
build
a
knowledge
base
and
network
on
school
fee
abolition
that
facilitates
the
exchange
of
lessons
learned
and
supports
sound
strategies
and
interventions.
Second,
the
goal
is
to
use
this
knowledge
and
experience
as
the
basis
for
facilitating
and
providing
guidance
and
support
to
countries
in
planning
and
implementing
a
policy
on
school
fee
abolition,
in
securing
external
assistance
in
the
short
and
medium
term,
and
in
ensuring
long
term
sustainability
in
terms
of
more
equitable
allocation
and
effective
management
of
education
and
other
resources.
Third,
it
is
to
facilitate,
promote
and
advance
the
global
policy
dialogue
on
the
financial
barriers
to
education
access
and
build
partnerships
that
ensure
an
environment
for
success.

(2006-2015)
Tunis,
Tunisia
Organized by African
Union (AU) in partnership with AfDB, UNESCO and ADEA
Goals and objectives.
The High-Level Meeting has the following goals that should
guide its objectives and actions :
- mobilization of stakeholders and partners in the process
of accelerating qualitative changes in education in Africa
in order to address the continental shortcomings in this key
sector;
- promotion of African education systems that will have a
positive impact for Africa's successful integration in a global
world and will enhance the endogenous potential of development
through scientific and technological improvements and relevance
vis-à-vis African identity, the specific needs of economic
development and social demand ;
- acceleration of economic growth, poverty alleviation, eradication
of pandemics (HIV/AIDS, malaria…), environment protection,
building social and national cohesion (against civil conflicts),
promotion of democratic and active citizenship through building
qualitative human and social capital on a wide scale based
on equity.
The African Union's Plan of Action, which has 7 priority areas,
has been prepared with the following objectives in mind:
- Gender and culture;
- Education management information systems;
- Teacher development;
- Tertiary education;
- Technical and vocational education and training, including
education in difficult situations;
- Curriculum and teaching and learning materials;
- Quality management.
The general objective of the high-level
meeting is to exchange information in order to arrive at a
consensus on the definition and the realization of the conditions
which would lead to the full participation of the eight REC
recognized by the African Union through the preparation and
implementation of regional strategies for the integration
of the Plan of Action of the Second Decade. More specifically,
the meeting will aim at attaining the following objectives:
- to pool the RECs' experience concerning the relationship
between education and integration;
- to share with the RECs the objectives and strategies of
the Plan of Action of the Second Decade;
- to define roles and specific responsibilities at each level
(continental, regional and national) for the implementation
of the Plan;
- to prepare strategies and methodologies which will facilitate
the integration of the objectives of the Plan of Action of
the Second Decade into the RECs' programmes;
- to analyze the RECs' needs for support for strengthening
their technical and institutional capacities, in order for
them to be able to carry out on a long-term basis the roles
allotted to them;
- to define, within the same framework, the sources and means
necessary for the mobilization of resources in favor of the
REC;
- to agree on a follow-up and reporting mechanism for the
implementation of the Plan of Action.

Colloquim : New governance in Education
(Montréal,
Canada)
Dix ans après le dépôt du rapport
final de la Commission des États généraux sur l'Éducation
du Québec1 et quarante ans après le Rapport Parent, le colloque
accordera une attention particulière aux enjeux du repérage,
de la réorganisation, voire de la création de nouvelles pratiques
de gestion et d'encadrement de l'éducation. Dans un contexte
de changements multiples et permanents, l'ensemble de ces
pratiques est en profonde transformation tant au niveau du
pilotage politique et administratif du système que de celui
de l'encadrement intermédiaire, que ce dernier soit au niveau
d'un territoire ou de l'établissement scolaire. À l'heure
de la mondialisation des échanges humains et de la mise en
réseau international des systèmes éducatifs, le colloque contribuera
par des analyses croisées au développement de communautés
de pratiques qui dépassent largement les frontières locales
et nationales.
